Pilot Projects on Village Energy Conservation


Energy Efficient LED Technology  was used for household lighting in villages by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency under its scheme of providing financial assistance to State Designated Agencies (SDAs). The existing incandescent bulbs in the households of a village were replaced by LED lights in identified villages, comprising 200 to 250 households. The SDAs were provided financial support to implement the pilot project by Bureau of Energy Efficiency under the Scheme.
According to the Bureau of Energy Efficiency, the household incandescent bulbs were replaced by
 LED bulbs in 27 states during the 11th Plan. State-wise details are given below:-
